Tea Cup Exchange of Gifts - Five of Friday

Angela MooreFriday, May 20, 2016

As a blogger I sometimes link up with other bloggers, sharing recipes joining in with monthly crafting linkys. It is a way of sharing a recipe or crafty make with fellow bloggers and discovering their creations too. Through a blog link I discovered a gifting linky called the Tea Cup and Mug Exchange, created and organised by the lovely Stephanie who blogs at The Enchanting Rose.

Tea Cup and Mug Exchange Gifts

You agree to send a Teacup & Saucer or Mug, a selection of teas or coffees and a few other items to someone either in your country or overseas.

I received mine this week, a little later than most people as there was a slight mix up with my exchange. It was being shipped from Canada from Gillian at Gigi Photography.

Wonderful handmade gifts

My surprise Tea Cup exchange parcel contained lots of lovely delights. I felt rather special unwrapping my parcel from Gillian knowing it had come all the way from Canada. It was a delight to discover five wonderful gifts all specially selected for me.

Pretty china cup and saucer

DIY Mason Jar Creative Crafts book - one of the idea to create a glitter dome from a Mason Jar has caught my eye.

I can not wait to try some of the craft suggests in the DIY Mason Jar book, as I have a number of these jars in the cupboard. I can be crafting whilst enjoying a cuppa in my new teacup and saucer.

I sent my teacup and saucer which you can see above, along with a selection of teas, a Shropshire notebook, Liberty pencil and a chocolate treat to the wonderful Sweet Briar Dreams. Do pop over and have a look, Chel has captured the gift in some beautiful photographs. I could barely part with the tea cup and saucer, for it was so delightful. I did manage to take a photograph prior to gift wrapping. I have also discover a new blog to follow too.

If you want to see the wonderful selection of Teacup, Mugs and gifts exchanged by everyone see theTeacup Exchange round up post, on the Enchanting Rose. I have to say a huge thank you to Stephanie for organising it all, with so many people it surely took a much of her time.

The next Teacup and Mug Exchange takes place later this year, you can find out more information at The Enchanting Rose.You do not have to be a blogger to join in.

What a wonderful idea! I have a friend in America who sends me lovely cherry teas and I send her mustard - because American mustards are all very mild, apparently. I think I might join in with the next exchange. Thank you for letting us know about it.

Such lovely things you sent and received! I think the teacup you chose to send is especially pretty. Enjoy your new crafting book while having a cuppa in your own pretty new cup! Thank you for taking part in Five On Friday, I hope you have a good weekend!

I enjoyed participating in the tea cup exchange, too. Mine too a long time as it came to Canada from Australia. It's a lovely way to reach out across the globe in friendship. Both the teacup you received and the one you gave are beautiful.
